Although no old structures remain at “La Chilii” to support the existence of ancient monastic hermitages, legends say that in these places, monks sent from the Eastern Roman Empire by Saint Basil the Great of Cappadocia would have established their hermitages with the purpose of persuading the local population to adopt the Orthodox faith. When this mission ended, these monks departed for other locations in Arges or elsewhere.
“La Chilii” offers visitors an exceptional panoramic view of the majestic Corbii de Piatră Monastery and the surrounding landscapes. It is a place of significance, combining spirituality, history, and natural beauty, attracting travelers who seek to immerse themselves in the rich cultural heritage and the tranquil atmosphere of the area.
